    Wind Waker struck a divide in the Zelda community with it's cell shaded graphics. But does giving it a modern refresh and some tweaks enough to patch some of that damage? We'll find out in my Legend of Zelda Wind Waker HD review! It's Link and pirates! What's not to like? Everything looks like a charming cartoon, and this game has aged extremely well.

    Kinda weird growing up when I did because I didn’t really know Nintendo much as a kid and when I found out about Wind Waker I just thought it looked cool. It’s sorta really hard to believe people cared about just the graphics that much, but I guess it would be weird if the next Animal Crossing looked like Fallout or something drastic like that.

      @@nestofskyrie472 that's a terrible comparison. LoZ has always had the colorful side. I dare say most LoZ games until the wind waker were mostly colorful.
      The main issue was the era. It was an era of washed out dull colors. That was what most games were going for and that was what was seen as next gen.

    Honestly Wind Waker is absolutely delightful. If there is any Zelda game I would revisit over and over again it would be Wind Waker. The items, explorations, side quests, beautiful cell shaded art style, gorgeous music, fluid combat, clever puzzles and funny characters are infectious.
    The HD additions make this personally not just my favorite of the Zelda remasters but of any game updated. The streamlining saves time, makes everything smoother and obviously the graphics/performance updates make the presentation pop with so much life.
    Going from the skeptical reception of its direction when it was announced, I can honestly say Wind Waker is an essential play for any Zelda fan and I think it's world was for many years the most fleshed out Zelda has seen, even if all rewards aren't super necessary or the game doesn't have quite as many dungeons despite the many extra challenges found throughout the world. It's great to see Jirard has finally got around to it and remind me of my love for this charming adventure.

    I was a big fan of Zelda games when I was younger, (Link's Awakening was the first game I remember beating) but when Windwaker initially came out I was one of the people that hated the art direction. Years later, when it got an HD remake on the Wii U it instantly became my favorite LOZ game, and I hate the negative view I gave it before. Love this game! Glad you had a good time Jirard!

It was the first game I finished and it seemed like such an impossible yet cathartic experience to sit through the end credits of the game after taking two years from the age of 8 to 10 to play through the entire story. This admiration for the game coupled with the fact that I don't know the last time you ranked a game so high on The Completionist scale really hit me for some reason.

Bravo. Amazing. A real tribute to one of my favorite childhood games. I've recently just started replaying the HD one again. Just finished Makar's & Medli's dungeons, and got everything extra with the Hookshot & Mirror shield.

    You forgot about the five Tingle Statues.
    In every major dungeon, there is an invisible chest that will only appear when a bomb explodes close enough to it.
    You were originally supposed to find them with hints that Tingle would give you via the Tingle Tuner, but that item was replaced with the Tingle Bottle here.

    I remember when I got the Wii U Wind Waker edition for my 13th birthday. I used to watch KevinJGaming’s zelda playthroughs, but had never heard of this game. I had little excitement for playing it, but once I beat the game, I cried. It was one of my favorite games ever. When I found out he released a completionist review for this game, I was so excited. It had reminded me of one of the best times of my life playing that game, and my nostalgia was so refreshing. This game will always hold a special place in my heart.

    I love this game so much and it's one of my absolute favorites from my childhood! I still play it semi-regularly and I've had it since 2004! Probably been over a decade now though since I've played it all the way through from the beginning. There's so much worthy of awe in this game. From the beautiful graphics to the huge open overworld, to the story, to the charming characters. Tbh I'd really, really, really love it if somehow someday, we could get another full 3D adventure in the same exact style featuring Link, Tetra, and her pirates in a new adventure. Taking someplace I guess between Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks chronologically.

    Well that was a change I wasn't expecting. The Gamecube version of Wind Waker gave you the Hero's Charm by giving the Teacher on Windfall Island a certain number of Joy Necklaces. The bottom of the Savage Labyrinth had a Piece of Heart.
    I don't think I'll ever play this version unless they launch it on the Switch, as I have no intention on buying a Wii U.

  • @michaelyochim6016
    @michaelyochim6016 5 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Anyone who plays Wind Waker just to finish it can't possibly appreciate the charm of this game. The element of discovery, for even if you've already played the game, The Great Sea's layout is basic enough to not be instantly discernable, but simple enough to navigate once you've marked a location on the main map. It's not empty, and that isn't made apparent, which is why figuring out that a seemingly barren section can be explored further, is undoubtedly a reward in and of itself. Even if the main reward isn't satisfactory, the fact you've made a note of it on a chart, found a treasure, explored a miniature dungeon, is. It's about taking a journey along a familiar field, but following various paths leading to the unknown. The objectives aren't usually that difficult either, and they certainly demand very little barrier to entry. Everything is managable, while rarely posing tasks with truly grueling intensity, a problem that is apparent with many other 3D Zelda games. While I came pretty close with Twilight Princess, to this day, Wind Waker HD is the one and only Zelda game I actually finished to 100% completion. I truly love it to death, and I cannot praise it enough.

    This is easily my most favorite Zelda game ever. And I have played each release in the series. HD is definitely the better version, but the GameCube version already had everything that made the game great. The Tingle Tuner was fun with the GBA as second screen and was replaced in this version with the Tingle Bottle. The Bottle needs Miiverse though, so that will never work again. I was surprised Jirard did not play this before?

    I was a moody 8th grader, and thankfully snapped out of it before 9th grade started, as i discovered pot and i doubled down on my favorite game series (metal gear solid, zelda, legacy of goku, Tomba 1 and 2), so by the time i graduated in 2010, my moody ways were gone, though i still enjoyed my chemical romance and marilyn manson along with indie hits.

    What's the difference between complete it and finish it?

    • @jakubmi9
      @jakubmi9 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      My guess would be "finish it" means go through the story normally grabbing what is nearby, completing a few side quests etc, while "complete it" means beat all modes, get all collectibles, complete all side missions, achieve all achievements and that kinda stuff

    • @rmsgrey
      @rmsgrey 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yeah, "finish it" means play through the main story until you reach "the end", doing side quests and chasing down extras only if you feel like it; "complete it" means track down every last collectible, fill out every log book, get every achievement, get every character to max level (for RPG-esque games), and generally do everything the game has to offer. Other ratings: "play it" means spend some time on it, but don't bother trying to get to the end of the story; "look at it" means give it a go, but don't expect to put much time into it; "donate it" means to not even bother trying to play it - just get rid of it.
      In other words:
      Donate it - game is just not fun to play. Don't bother.
      Look at it - game may be fun, but only for a very niche audience, or for a short time before getting bored
      Play it - game's fun, but either goes downhill toward the end, or gets old after a time - either way, driving yourself to the end of the story is more effort than it's worth
      Finish it - the game's fun, and holds up throughout the main quest, but either it's not fun enough to keep going after that, or at least some of the optional stuff is frustrating, boring, or unrewarding enough to make it not worth going the extra mile
      Complete it - either the game's so fun to play that it's worth squeezing as much extra play time out of it as you can, or there are enough rewards for doing the optional challenges that it's worth doing for that.
      In the past, there have also been hybrid ratings - like "finiplay it" or "finipete it" - for games that straddled the line between two ratings, or for games where, say, the main story is so short that you'll finish it almost by accident, or there's so little else beyond the main story that once you've put in the effort to finish it, you might as well do the extra thing for completion - but those are officially no longer given.
